Harold Cauley

Harold Cauley (1941-) was a reporter for The Tattler, a New Orleans newspaper. In 1968, Cauley and his paper could hardly keep up with the news due to Lincoln Clay's gang wars with the Marcano crime family, and he decided to help Clay with taking down Tony Derazio's corruption racket under Frankie Bernard and Lou Marcano's sex racket under Harry Robicheaux. Cauley used these stories to write his stories, profiting from Clay's activities.
